We visited Kenya and Tanzania 18- 26 February 2026. The beginning of their wet season. Our journey started in Nairobi sleeping the first night in the 5 star, opulent and beautiful Emara Ole-Sereni Hotel overlooking the Nairobi National Park. The friendly Felix of the Predators Safari Club took is to the Wilson airport the next day. He explained everything to us and made sure that we got on the plane to the Masai Mara.
We stayed for 3 nights in the beautiful Govenor's Camp on the banks of the Mara river. We were totally overwhelmed by the hospitality, friendliness and comfort of the camp. We were spoiled with the most exquisite food. Each safari was very special with many sightings of lion, cheetah, elephants, hyena, birds etc. The camp is unfenced and we were spoiled with visits from elephants, warthogs, hippo and a variety of birds. Game rangers were on duty 24 hours per day to keep everyone safe.
Our last leg of our trip were in the Southern Serengeti. We stayed in the Lemala Ndutu Tented Camp. We stayed in one of the 8 spacious well fitted tents with a flush toilet, shower, electricity, etc. What makes this remarkable is that this whole camp will be dismantled and moved north for the migration! This camp was also unfenced with wildlife walking freely through it and with game rangers protecting the guests. We were again spoiled with good food and warm hospitality. The safari's each day were full of exciting sightings from : hundreds of wildebeest and their calves, zebra, lion, leopard, cheetah, birds, etc. Our safari guide was very resourceful and helped us to understand everything about the migration phenomenon.
The Predators Safari Club helped us to get our flight to Arusha, Kilimanjaro and Nairobi airports. On route we had a delicious lunch at the Arusha Coffee Lodge.
We are grateful for Explore Plus ( Naomi and her team) and the Predators Safari Club whom made this an unforgettable experience and holiday. Their friendliness, planning, logistic arrangements, helpful information and attention to detail are to be recommended. This was really an uplifting and memorable experience. Thank You!

Wonderful moments in a natural surrounding
Everything was so amazing, we spent the 5-days safari, starting from Seronera airstrip from central serengeti to ngorogoro crater ,we spent the nights in authentic camps and saw four animals of the Big Five.
Our guide had a broad Knowledge about wildlife. He found spots where we could watch lions, gepards, elephants , gnus and much more. Thank you, we hope to can come again.
A Trailblazer and Innovator in African Safari Experience
When this Safari Itinerary was presented to me by Living “Owner of Nyumbu Beyond Journeys” I thought it was unbelievable 🫠. Getting to experience 3 East Africa countries at once was a dream come true - “Burundi, Rwanda & Uganda”. Nyumbu being one of a few tour operators that offer travel in Burundi, it gave way for me to see the magnificence of this forgotten destination. Everything was designed and tailored accordingly - the tea, Laban “Our Driver Guide” and Ernest “Our Burundi Tour Guide” plus having Living accompany us made life smooth and Good like LG 🤗. This trip for me was homecoming visiting my ancestral lands “Rwanda and Uganda” is one of my greatest life accomplishments. From River Rusizi, to the Nyungwe Forest to catching the sunset at Queen Elizabeth plains - this 15 Days Burundi, Rwanda & Uganda travel is best value for money you’ll ever invest in African Safari Experience. Thank you Living for curating a journey of lifetime for us, I highly recommend this to everyone and Nyumbu Beyond Journeys is your ideal travel partner.

A 2-Day Last-Minute Decision That Led to an Unforgettable Calving Season Trip in Tanzania!
Booked with Big Cat Safaris in just 2 days. Salesman William Frank was incredibly helpful and responsive. Guide Omega made the trip perfect. He drove very steadily on bumpy roads for 6 days, showing us the calving season in Serengeti and black rhinos in Ngorongoro. When the vehicle broke down on the last day, he fixed it quickly. Highly recommend! Asante Sana!

Everything perfect and exciting
The tour just finished exceeded our expectations. We visited everything as planned. Our guide, Hamza, is extremely reliable and safe, attentive, and patient. During this period of heavy rain, the roads are not always passable, but he always managed to get by. The accommodations chosen were super beautiful and authentic. Highly recommended. If I were to return, I would call again.

Great Well Organised Safari
Splendid Vacations did a great job organising our safari. They listened to our requirements and budget and suggested great options for us. Despite visiting Kenya and Lake Naivasha before' the Crescent Island visit suggested by Splendid was a real highlight. Our vehicle was well driven with a knowledgeable driver and we had great animal sightings. Splendid vacations communicated well and quickly. We have done lots of safaris and we would thoroughly recommend them and use them again.

An exceptional guide made this safari unforgettable - thanks to Shaddy
Our safari to Lake Nakuru and in the Masai Mara was simply a dream experience – we couldn’t have imagined anything better! From the very first minute, everything was perfectly organized and we felt completely cared for and warmly welcomed.
The game drives were breathtaking: we were able to see (almost)the “Big Five” up close - lions, elephants, rhinos, buffalos and even a cheetah and many, many other amazing animals.
Our guide Shaddy was incredibly knowledgeable, warmly, passionate, and had an impressive instinct for locating the animals. Every drive was exciting, educational, and full of magical moments.
We were especially impressed by the flawless organization of the entire trip. Transfers, schedules, and activities were perfectly coordinated, allowing us to fully relax and enjoy the safari to the fullest.
This safari was a once-in-a-lifetime experience filled with emotions, adventure, and unforgettable encounters with wildlife. We wholeheartedly give it 5 stars and would book this trip again anytime – an absolute recommendation for anyone who wants to experience the Masai Mara in an authentic and immersive way!

$2,000 charged for services NEVER provided
I strongly advise against booking with this agency due to a major breach of contract and dishonest dispute management.
The Dispute: We paid a $2,000 supplement for a specific Kilimanjaro extension (Horombo Hut). This service was never provided. We were kept on the basic 1-day itinerary, simply spread over two days, and never reached the promised altitude or refuge.
Bad Faith: Although the agency admitted in writing to an "editorial error" in their program, they refuse to refund the overcharged amount. They only offered a derisory $400 compensation (20% of the cost), which is unacceptable for a service that was simply not delivered.
Customer Service: Management refuses to take responsibility for their billing errors. Keeping $1,600 for a service that did not exist is not a "gesture of goodwill," it is an unjustified enrichment.

A special experience
Going on this safari with Mountain Warriors was such a wonderful way to start our honeymoon. Despite it having rained, Idey our tour guide expertly navigated the Serengeti mud to make sure we had a chance to get up close to lions which was a highlight. We are very glad to have chosen this company to safari with and would recommend this to anyone!
